New Release or Spill
1) Prevent further discharge or release.
2) Use containment (e.g. temporary dikes, pits, or tanks) to minimize area affected.
3) Remove (adsorbent material, vacuum system) fluids from the surface ASAP; even within a diked area; properly inject them into Class II or other permitted well.
4) Flushing the spill areas with fresh water may facilitate the removal of saltwater from the soil surface unless the soil is high in clays; then avoid fresh water.
5) Till in soil amendments such as hay, fertilizer, and/or gypsum.
